			[http://greenaction.org/ Greenaction] and the [http://www.baehc.org/organization/hunters-view-mothers-committee Huntersview Mothers Committee] led the successful fight that closed the PG&E Hunters Point power plant in 2006. The buildings and infrastructure at the power plant have been demolished, and PG&E and government agencies have been working on the cleanup of contamination at the 38 acre site on the shores of San Francisco Bay. Environmental sampling confirmed that the soil and groundwater are contaminated with many hazardous substances, including a large amount of PCBs, PAHS, THP diesel, arsenic, lead, hexavalent chromium, nickel, cobalt, zinc and asbestos.

			In a great show of solidarity, the Huntersview Moms and Greenaction succeeded in getting PG&E to stop sending the PCBs from the power plant cleanup to be dumped in the farmworker town of Kettleman City in California’s San Joaquin Valley, a town where residents suffer a high rate of birth defects, miscarriages and infant deaths.
